Stephen Lias (composer)

From Lias' National Parks Series, ...Into the Blue is his musical distillation of the Saint-Gaudens National Historic Site (Cornish, New Hampshire). Three movements describe the pastoral setting, several of the monuments, and the famous "Masque of Ours," a performance by the artist community to honor their patron. Commissioned by the Trustees of the Saint-Gaudens Memorial, ...Into the Blue was premiered in the Little Studio on site.
